Fans of Seinfeld and other disgruntled partygoers: Happy Festivus!
As you gather around your aluminum pole, air your grievances
and perform feats of strength, it is good to know the origin of the festival.
Most people are aware of the festival of the Seinfeld episode in 1997 called
"strike" which introduced the celebration in the world. Frank
Costanza, acted by Jerry Stiller, told his long-lost bagel-slinging celebration
for Kramer, recalling destroyed a doll and a frustration with consumerism. It's
more lower than that, tho'.

As a writer Dan O'Keefe told the New York Times in 2004, the
holiday actually came from his own father, who originally celebrated it in 1966
as an anniversary of his 1st date with the mother O'Keefe. O'er the yrs, it's
become many complex, with traditions such as bagging clocks are added to the
equation.
In 2010, Stiller aired his grievances with a shot to the
Republic Eric Cantor, who celebrated the festival with a fundraiser at the
time. The delay in the extension of unemployment insurance, the repeal of the
slow "Do not ask, do not say," the lengthy road to 9-11 Bill relief
for first responders, he said, have been upset at the time. Looks like the
elaborate spread, too. Festivus for the stay of U.S.A.!
